Abstract:

The purpose of the study is to establish a rapid detection method for Ralstonia solanacearum,which is beneficial to the early diagnosis of plant bacterial wilt in the field. The LAMP(loop-mediated isothermal amplification)method for amplification of cytochrome C gene was established by optimization of reaction conditions. The minimum detection limit with the LAMP method reached 1 pg. The detection could be completed within 1 h without using complicated instruments and the results were visible by human eye. Using this method,R. solanacearum was detected in the stem extracts of manually inoculated eggplant,tomato,peanut,sesame and Amaranthus lividus and potato tuber tissue fluid of potato,especially,it was appropriate for the detection of sesame,peanut,tomato,potato and sweet potato plants suspected of being in disease in the field,and the detection rate by LAMP was much higher than that by PCR method. The LAMP method is a fast,specific,sensitive,and easy-to-use for the field detection of R. solanacearum bacterial wilt,which is suitable for promotion at the grassroots level.

Key words: Ralstonia solanacearum, loop-mediated isothermal amplification, rapid detection
